Soooo tempting. I wonder if I should come run the truck…I bet I could embarass a few people with my 100hp 305. (god this truck sucks!)

Either that or I could scam the rent’s '04 F-350…mmmmm. 😃

Just make sure you register your vehicle Dave. Even if you’re not racing you still have to register to get on the base.

Oh come on!! I’m going to be working for 8 hours just before this starts, 11pm Sat night to 7 Sun morning. If you can’t haul your ass out of bed sporting a nasty hangover after 3 hours of sleep to go racing, what can you get up for? ehhe

Hey,

Everyone that didn’t go to this really missed out. Great times had by all, the racing was awesome, and I managed to go killed cone counting with a VERY enthusasastic (ie. sideways) Scooby driver. 😃

Did anyone from here actually make it to this AutoX?

Really? Who were you?

The reason I ask is because I am Kris, the guy that was one of the hosts for the TV show demo they were filming. Was just wondering if I’d run into you over the course of the day. 🙂

I still can’t believe the Chrysler Pacifica set one of the fastest times of the day! 😃

Ummm, I was me. Matt in the '89 Silverado…that kicked a few more asses than people were expecting. :lol:

I ended up with a best of 1:47.

Ha ha ha…yeah. I have to admit, that was pretty funny.

Everyone was laughing especially hard when we thought the Ram had got stuck as well. 😃

1:47 is hella fast for a bloody pickup. From some of the times I was hearing, you did pretty well! 🙂

Yeah, stupid deep snow.

What’s more impressive is how gutless my truck is. I had to keep that thing as smooth as possible to make those times, I couldn’t just mat it and pick up speed.

Bah…a winter autocross and you’re concerned with times?

Meh, it’s interesting to see how you compare to more powerful, lighter vehicles with better tires.

But yeah, I can’t wait to see the video of the truck going slideways all over the place! 😃
